Good morning everyone. (Almost afternoon). Ha.

Just checking in before I head to my AA meeting & then to run a few errands.

Today is one of those days that laying in bed all day & isolating sounds good. But I won't because alcoholism THRIVES on isolation.

@snowvelvet-I'm glad you are feeling better & told that AV where to go!!!

@Patricia-I'm still praying!!! What action can you take today that will help your anxiety & craving? Here are some ideas I came up with:
1. Pray
2. call a therapist
3. Call a friend
4. Call a family member
5. Go to church
6. Find an AA meeting even if it's far away. The drive might be good for you.
7. Go to the gym to exercise
8. Go to mall to just walk
9. Bundle up & walk outside to get fresh air
10. Take a warm bath
11. Meditate
12. Break the day into minutes
13. Call your doctor again or a new doctor
14. Journal
15.take a nap

Those are just a few ideas. Just remember that alcohol is a HUGE cause of anxiety. Don't drink. Your AV has zero power over you if you ignore it.

I will ask for prayers for you in my AA meeting today. I will just say "please pray for my friend Patricia. She is really struggling," God will know who I'm talking about.

You are worth fighting for....do you believe that? God doesn't make junk!!! (((Hug)))
